232 Dr. Hers che l’s Account , See. 
P.S. M. Mechain having favoured me with an account of the 
difeovery of his comet, I looked for it among the Pleiades, 
fuppofing its track fince the 10th of this month to lie that 
way ; and faw it April 19th, at 10 h. io / fidereal time, when it 
preceded Fl. d Pleiad um about 54" in time, with nearly the 
fame declination as that ftar ; but no great accuracy was at- 
tempted in the determination of its place. As I have men- 
tioned the comet in a foregoing paragraph of this Paper, I 
thought it proper here to add my obfervation of it. “ The 
“ comet is nearly round, with a fmall tail towards the north 
“ following part ; the chevelure extends to about four or five 
“ minutes ; and it has a central, very fmall, ill-defined nu- 
* “ cleus, of no great brightnefs.”
